The Stags (12-4-2)(7-1-2)) host Rider this afternoon at 5:00 pm on Lessing Field in the 2017 MAAC Men's Soccer Championship game. The winner gets the NCAA Tournament bid. On November 1, Rider lost to the Stags 3-0 on Lessing Field. The Stags are (5-1-2) at home on that pitch. This season the Stags have reached double figures in the win column, registering an 12-4-2 record through its 18 games to date. Since its overtime loss to Canisius on September 30, Fairfield has established a ten-game unbeaten streak that includes six victories. Before its draw with Quinnipiac in the MAAC semifinals, Fairfield had won four straight games with two victories coming against MAAC Tournament participants (Manhattan and Rider).

If you click on the MAAC.TV link on the Stag website to be able to watch the game you will get this message: 404It looks like you're lost...
The page you are looking for no longer exists.However, if you go to the Rider or MAAC website you get the correct link: maacsports.com/watch/?Live=17Hopefully someone in charge at the Stag website who is not "lost" will post the correct link before 5:00 pm this afternoon when the championship game starts? How can Rider as the visiting team and the MAAC already have the correct information and the Fairfield Athletic Department's Stag website can't? |

Fairfield fullbacks were dominant. Monmouth had a very good front three. And they did hit the post in the first half. But the defense was the difference.

The Fairfield goalie is a difference maker. Only a freshman, he stands at 6'5" and in the semifinal match against Quinnipiac he stopped 3 of 5 penalty kicks in a shootout that decided the game. He is an import from Switzerland.
